It is a hotel with 4 rooms that looks like an old Okinawan house.Each room faces the front garden, so if the weather is nice, it will be comfortable.Both the room and bath are spacious and comfortable.There is no TV, but there is WiFi, although it is unstable. The breakfast is homemade and delicious.

Traditional Okinawan house. The rooms are large, the garden is large, the bathroom is large, and the space is perfect. Only 4 rooms. It's quiet and relaxing.There are no signboards on the way, so some people may get lost looking for it, but it also feels like a hidden gem that not many people know about. I was surprised to find that it was soba from Il Mare.I stayed at various inns in Iriomote, but this one was the best. The price is also good, but it's worth it. A certain N resort near Hoshisuna is nice and feels like a hideaway, but the room size and calmness are of a higher grade for the price.I think the Wi-Fi is probably slow in the rooms at both ends. There are many times when I have no choice but to work at a resort, and I wish something could be done about this. I'm quite annoyed by the slowness. If you put up a phone antenna, you can still use tethering with your smartphone, but this is weak, so I hope you can at least do something about Wifi.

The room, which was a renovated traditional house, was spacious, easy to use, and comfortable. You can also spend a relaxing time anywhere you like, such as on the veranda or in the garden.We stayed for 2 nights this time, but next time we would like to stay longer.

I think it's a very nice hotel. It was my first trip to a remote island in Okinawa.I was a little worried and excited. I was surprised when I arrived!! ️It's a very quaint building, and the interior is spacious and has a very relaxing atmosphere. It's great for relaxing and relaxing 😀Also, this time I only asked for breakfast, so I didn't eat dinner, but the quality of the breakfast was high. On the first day, we had Japanese food, which once again changed the concept of Okinawan food. On the second day, we had Western food, owner's homemade bread, Scrabble eggs, salad, and soup, all of which were delicious. Next time, I would like to order dinner as well! ️Anyway, I think the owner and staff are very polite. I was told that a small number of elite people are doing the work, but 😀The drawback is that of course there is insect repellent in the room, but if you are concerned, it would be better to have one-push or insect repellent spray. It might be good. Please come and visit Iriomote Island. I also want to go again next time.

Thank you for taking care of my family. 4 rooms in a renovated old folk house. There are two rooms each in a symmetrical building with a dining room in between. We stayed in two rooms on the east side. The interior decoration is reminiscent of a tropical lodge. The beamed ceiling is equipped with a ceiling fan, giving it a sense of openness. The bathroom is also equipped with a washing machine. You can feel safe even if you stay for several nights. Umbrellas and rubber sandals for when going out were also provided, which was helpful.WiFi is also available. There is no TV.Cell phone reception was difficult indoors, so Docomo was OK, but au and Softbank were not.Particularly noteworthy is the deliciousness of the homemade breakfast bread!I think it was freshly baked, but the red sweet potato and bacon bread was delicious. We also had a Japanese breakfast served. I want to go again.
